This ain’t your daddies Wall St Journal.

On the other hand since I won’t subscribe I love only read the excerpt.

still vastly negative.

Like saying you weigh 500 pounds today after losing 5 pounds this year.

At the bottom of the last recession, the deficit was $1.4 Trillion.

What will it be next time around?

Lowest deficit, unemployment at 5.1%—no inflation—wow—can they possibly lie any more blatantly about what is really going on?

Let me summarize:

In short, the government has shortchanged the employed who can barely afford to feed, clothe, or house their families through high taxation so that America can be transformed into a socialist hellhole where the Washington elites go to $25,000 plate campaign fundraisers, drive $100K + vehicles, wear watches that cost more than some people earn in a year and suits that cost more than some people earn in a month while living in mansions and pointing fingers at tea party members calling them domestic terrorists. Got it.

Bush's spending was reckless and irresponsible. Still,
as bad as he was, Obama has him beat by a huge margin.

You want me to believe that spending more than ever has brought us a lower deficit?

Are you serious?

I’m not a mathematician, but I can tell you there’s something wrong with the Wall St Journal’s numbers.

Remember when the MSM use to scream about $200 billion dollar deficits? Now $400 billion dollar deficits are wonderful.

Presidential budgets are dead on arrival. Congress creates budgets, and deficits are the result of voting Democrats out of control of Congress.

If the rest of the budget was cut like Defense we would have a surplus.

You do realize that the deficit and the debt are not the same thing, don’t you?

All that a reduction in deficit means is that the debt grew at a slower rate. While a deficit reduction sounds good, it is really only less bad.
